Life of I
Life of I is a production created by actors with learning disabilities which shows difference in the way they would like you to see it.
Each scene has been written and devised by our actors with the hope of breaking the stigmas and assumptions that are put upon them every day. The show highlights the intersectionality of life that people with learning disabilities experience, and the kinds of obstacles they overcome along the way. Expect laughter, tears, and shed loads of learning. “I have a learning disability and… and what?”
